Is Rutherford Park the right location for a destination playground?

Katie Townshend Reporter from The Nelson Mail

A new “destination playground” for Nelson's city centre will be built in Rutherford Park after Nelson City Council agreed to the site by the Trafalgar Centre for the $3.824 million project at a meeting on Thursday. The decision is in lieu of a planned play space on Bridge St, at the site of the eBus bus hub. But, some councillors questioned the location, saying the council was committed to building a playground to help “activate” and bring people into the city centre, and Rutherford Park was too out of the way.
What do you think? Is Rutherford Park central enough?
